Abstract

This substrate (10) for a power module is provided with an insulating substrate (11) and a circuit layer (12) formed on one surface of the insulating substrate (11). The circuit layer (12) is configured by bonding a first copper plate (22) onto one surface of the insulating substrate (11). Before being bonded, the first copper plate (22) has a composition containing at least: a total of 1 molppm to 100 molppm of one or more of an alkali earth metal, a transition metal element, and a rare earth element; or 100 molppm to 1000 molppm of boron; with the remainder being copper and unavoidable impurities.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a substrate for a power module, a substrate for a power module with a heat sink, a power module, and a method for manufacturing a substrate for a power module used in semiconductor devices that control large current and high voltage. [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-176712 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-176881 filed in Japan on Aug. 12, 2011, and the contents thereof are incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] Among semiconductor elements, a power module for supplying electric power has a relatively high calorific value. Therefore, as a substrate on which the power module is mounted, for example, a substrate for a power module is used, which includes: AlN (aluminum nitride), Al 2 o 3 (alumina), Si 3 N 4 (silicon nitride) or the like; a circuit layer having a first metal plate bonded to one side of the insulating substrate; and a ...
